Chapter 485 You Can’t Work With Arthur

"Isn't this condition attractive enough?"

Indeed, that one condition was enough for Haris to risk his life.

Jasmine was the McGrath Family's only heir. If anything happened to her, their bloodline would end here.

Besides, Jasmine and Haris had a close relationship as she grew up under his care.

He had to get her out safely, by hook or by crook.

"Jasmine is your granddaughter. You have a close relationship with her. So, you'll gain more after this exchange."

Elspeth suppressed her laughter as she listened to Callum, as he made it seem like that was the case.

Even though what he said made sense, something still felt off.

It felt like he was haggling in a wet market.
